Join me in congratulating our newest Center controller: Nathan Rankin!
I had the opportunity to train Nathan on Boston Tower, Approach, and Center, and working with him has always been a pleasure. It is not often we see students with such a positive attitude and an eagerness to learn. His training is now complete but on Center, the learning never stops. Welcome to the big leagues Nathan!

60 Hours is back. Join us for this one of a kind ATC marathon event!
As part of this unique tradition, Boston Center will be staffed continuously from December 6 at 11am ET to December 8 at 11pm ET (6 Dec 1600z - 9 Dec 0400z). We will be hosting FNO on that Friday night as well.
We look forward to seeing you all there!

If you fly your jet into Boston and we are landing 27, that's what you are going to hear.. no exceptions!!
Congratulations to Nathan Rankin who has earned his Student Authorization for Boston Approach!

On November 2nd, 2019 from 1700z-0100z VATUSA will host the 2019 Transcon Event. This event will feature east and west coast fields for departures and arrivals and have En Route ARTCCs staffed as well. This is a great opportunity to experience a transcontinental flight with full ATC along the way. We are planning to have 4 eastern departure fields/arrival fields and 3-4 western arrival/departure fields. Pilots can fly between any of the select fields and be guaranteed top down ATC services. VATUSA will provide a pilot briefing closer to the event which will have preferred routing and other details/instructions to insure the events runs smoothly. If you have any questions please feel free to reach out to me at [email protected] Please include Transcon 2019 in the subject. We look forward to seeing everyone on Nov 2! Flights will depart from KSEA or KLAX and track eastbound across the U.S. to one of the four arrival airport including - KIAD, KMCO, KMIA, KJFK, and KBOS. Enroute ATC will be provided and preferred routing will be posted as well as a pilot brief closer to the event. We look forward ot everyone coming out and enjoying a night of flying.
